Web-based PVT by NeuroUX
Projects
Psychomotor Vigilance Test (PVT)
NeuroUX offers a web-based version of PVT which can be administered on a smartphone web browser, enabling participants to perform the test on their devices without the need for app installation. The test can be accessed through a simple text message link.
Available Versions:
- PVT (Standard Version):
This version replicates the traditional PVT with a 10-minute testing duration. It offers comprehensive data on sustained attention and reaction times, making it ideal for in-depth studies.
- PVT-B (Brief Version):
Our PVT-B condenses the traditional format into a quick 3-minute assessment. While more compact, it retains the core features necessary for meaningful insights, offering a balance of efficiency and precision.
Both versions are accessible via our web-based platform, ensuring seamless integration into remote or in-lab studies.
Why Choose NeuroUX's PVT?
NeuroUX’s platform ensures researchers have the tools they need to conduct precise, reliable, and scalable studies:
- Web-Based Platform: Cross-platform accessibility without the need for participants to download apps.
- Accessibility Through Text Messages: Links sent via SMS with options for follow-up reminders.
- Scalable for Large Studies: Convenient for large-scale studies with participants using personal devices.
- Different Versions: Standard and brief formats to meet diverse research needs.
- Integrated Tools: Seamless integration with NeuroUX’s suite of validated cognitive tests, EMA, and wearables.
- User-Friendly Experience: Designed for simplicity, ensuring participants can easily complete the test without additional guidance.
Recommendations for Research Validity
To ensure reliable data, consider the following:
- Within-Participant Changes: Ensure that each participant uses the same smartphone for all PVT sessions.
- Between-Participant Changes: Ensure that all participants use the same smartphone model to standardize response time measurements.

“NeuroUX team makes mobile assessment extremely easy. The team is highly responsive to feedback, reliable, and a pleasure to work with. I am currently conducting two NIMH funded studies that incorporate Ecological Momentary Assessment, and the NeuroUX team has made this not only possible but enjoyable!
I highly recommend them!”

“Typically, we conduct experiments in a laboratory and schools, but with the pandemic of COVID-19, this is no longer possible. NeuroUX has provided us with a powerful platform for reaching more of our participants at lower cost. They helped us transition our lab-based test to a mobile cognitive test which gathers useful data about how child cognition changes over time.”

“NeuroUX has been an invaluable partner and worked closely with us to seamlessly integrate EMA and mobile cognitive testing for our study. Their technical support and responsiveness each step of the way has been exceptional, and their ability to incorporate feedback and customize both participant-facing and researcher-facing interfaces has allowed us to tailor their platform to meet our study needs. They have also been a pleasure to work with and facilitated connections with other scientists conducting similar work. I highly recommend their platform to other scientists considering EMA and ambulatory cognitive testing!”

“The goal of our study is to test the efficacy of a dyadic sleep intervention program for persons living with dementia and their caregivers. NeuroUX made our research work so convenient for both staff and study participants. EMA sleep diary is so much easier than the paper version. It is very easy and quick to schedule the surveys. The interface is easy for study participants to navigate; they are able to quickly and easily answer the survey questions. The best feature is that the dashboard is super easy to read and quickly check the status of EMA surveys. It is also easy to download the data using other programs and identify missing data.”

““The NeuroUX team was incredibly prompt and efficient in responding to our modification requests and feedback. They were willing to customize many aspects of the protocol and created a researcher dashboard that was very intuitive to navigate. Our adolescent participants reported enjoying the surveys and found them easy to access. We would recommend their services to any academic teams looking to conduct research with this method!”
